    Headlight Fogged and Strange Sequence?

    Well…guess one learns something every day if lucky. Did not know any headlights were not sealed so that is a new one. Then again, honestly ever gave it a thought they were not. Seems strange though maybe due to amount of heat generated such is required. Else it is a ‘bmw’ feature like the...

    Long-term review of the BMW CE 04 (The Suit & Tie Rocket Ship)

    Enjoy it while you have it and/or trade it in when you feel you should. Not related to this post directly though maybe a bit. I just ordered this adapter, with coupon for around $53. Thinking it might come in handy when out and about if it indeed allows me to charge at a Tesla station, be it...

    Seat upholstry UV/sun damage BMW CE04

    When I purchased my bike the dealer had two on the floor they got from a dealer up North. On one of them the sales guy was waiting on a replacement seat so guessing this maybe an issue with the material bmw used on the scooter seat. Sadly, bet bmw would not allow one to ‘upgrade’ to a higher...

    Long-term review of the BMW CE 04 (The Suit & Tie Rocket Ship)

    Wow, what a write up. Much appreciated for certain. A few thoughts from one that has less than 50 miles on ride. Color - my 2022 Avantgrade is a sweet color though every time I see the white color I drool. Seat - I almost sort of ‘feel’ putting my butt on the seat hump feels best in so far as...

    2024 ce 04 Imperial Blue Metallic vs 2022 brown color

    Ok, granted I own the 'brown' 2022 model. Still, I sort of like my brown color more then the new 04 blue metallic. What say you? Granted White is a neat color as well I offer.

    Ev versus gas vehicles

    I have the top end trim 2022 model that came with a charger cable for for USA 110v standard electrical plug. Dealer said an adapter 'plug' might cost like $500 +/-, said he would see what he could do to knock the price down a bit (I live in the USA). Guessing, not certain the adapter plug just...

    Ev versus gas vehicles

    Photos of proper tie down / tensioning strap application please :-)

    I purchased a handlebar strap. It has a hard plastic can shape on each side that slides over each handlebar then a strap loop that is part of the setup on each side. You then connect your front steps to each side and it pulls each handle bar 'can' tight to hold the bike in place. That was...

    Bmw alarm system - how to install

    Today I am told one must take off the front cover located behind the windscreen and inside there is a place to ‘push in, plug in maybe’ the bmw alarm module. Has anyone done this and can advise how to take that cover off? There does not appear to be any document bmw provides users to download...

    Half the cost RX1E vs CE04

    Good points I would say. Guessing though both are better as around town riding bikes though. Several videos on youtube showing RX1E range for city and highway.
